Arachnids

The Arachnids are descendants of normal spiders that were almost hunted to extinction. Some scientists of unknown origin experimented on them and genetically modified them to look like humans and be almost as intelligent. They became intelligent enough to learn different languages and how to make farms and tools but the scientists made sure to never let them have a moment to themselves for fear that they might escape. One day, an engineer accidentally cut the power to the whole facility, allowing them break out of captivity, and slaughter all the scientists in the complex. They lived for centuries underground, feeding on animals that ventured to far down caves and over time evolved into advanced human-Arachnid hybrids. At some point an animal infected with some form of disease was consumed by the colony, quickly spreading and forcing them, to go to the surface for the first time in centuries. The surface was a place of mystery and danger for them. Nobody knew what to do and without a proper leader the Arachnids scattered across the land in small groups, some even went alone. Most Arachnids died of hunger or ambushes but some managed to adapt and befriend the other strange creatures of the surface world.
